If he is the father of your child he has an obligation to support that child, if he is not on the birth certifcate, you may want to go to Court and file a motion to require the father to provide child support, and as part of that motion request that the Court require him to submitt to a paternaty test which would potentially establish that he is the actual father of that chid, I would however consider consulting a lawyer directly, if you cannot afford one, I would inquire if legal services might agree to represent you, I do not know if they would handle a case like this, but initially getting some advise from a family law attorny would be in your best interests, good luck
